People wanted for the election committees

Dear Students,

for the upcoming summer Student-Elections (the Elections for the Student Parliament and the student unions) the Student Parliament (StuPa) is looking for:

1) Students to join the ELECTION COMMITTEE including a ELECTION COORDINATOR,
2) Students to join the ELECTION STANDARDS COMMITTEE.

All CAU Students have the opportunity to join these committees!

What are the Student Elections?

Each year all students elect the members of the Student Parliament and of the student unions. These represent the interests of students.

What does the Election Committee do?

The election committee is made up of 5 to 9 members who collect the lists of candidates and, in close cooperation with the university’s election office, inform students about the elections and encourage them to vote.

To this end, the election committee is required to motivate as many students as possible to vote through election advertising. How exactly this should look is up to you. In recent years, for example, there have been posters and flyers, panel discussions and election videos. The committee has a budget available for the campaigns.

How much time should I plan with?

This isn't easy to predict and depends on the scale of the campaign. Preparation for the elections starts in April, the election deadline is usually in June. Last year, members claimed about 2-3 hours per week in April and May, and 6 hours per Week in June. The committee self-organizes and therefore decides on the meeting frequency itself.

Was bringt die Arbeit im Wahlausschuss?

Spaß und Platz für eure kreativen Ideen! Ihr bekleidet ein wichtiges Ehrenamt für die studentische Selbstverwaltung. Nach erfolgreicher Tätigkeit kann euch eine Bescheinigung darüber ausgestellt werden.

Außerdem erhaltet ihr eine finanzielle Aufwandsentschädigung in Höhe von 165 € pro Monat. Für einfache Ausschussmitglieder werden drei Tätigkeitsmonate veranschlagt, für die Wahlleitung fünf.

What does the Election Standards Committee do?

The Election Standards Committee is comprised of five elected persons. They are responsible for ensuring that the elections were carried out according to the official election procedure.

 

Important Formalities

As a member of the Election or Election Standards Committees you surrender for the duration of your service the right to hold office. This means that in summer, the student body cannot elect you. Members of the Election Committee will receive financial compensation. Law students do not receive a certificate for an administrative internship.

In your work, you are bound by the Statutes of the student body, especially the election ordinance (https://www.stupa.uni-kiel.de/download/wahlordnung-der-studierendenschaft-2020-01-28/).

How can you apply?

The elections and subsequent allocation of membership in both committees will be determined in the next StuPa meeting on the 10th March 2025 at 6:00 PM in LMS 8 – R.EG.017. If you would like to be a candidate for the position, simply register yourself for the meeting at: praesidium@stupa.uni-kiel.de and be sure to attend. If for some reason you cannot attend at this time, we will require you to briefly introduce yourself and include ideas you have for the committee and the election and send this as well.

Do you still have questions?

If you have question concerning the exact responsibilities and duties of the Election Committee feel free to contact us.

Yours Truly,

Presidium of student parliament
